Frequently asked questions

Which is faster, the Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe (992.2) or the Porsche 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 Coupe (982)?

The Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe (992.2) makes 473 hp and runs 0–60 mph in 3.1 seconds (PDK); the Porsche 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 Coupe (982) makes 394 hp and runs 0–60 mph in 4.3 seconds (manual). Figures are Porsche-claimed unless noted as tested.

How do I compare two Porsche models?

Pick any two trims in the selectors above — any model, any generation — and the table lines up engine, horsepower, torque, 0–60 mph, top speed, curb weight, weight per horsepower and launch MSRP, with the difference in the last column.

Can I compare a Porsche 911 with a Boxster or Cayman?

Yes. Every 911, 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman trim since the 1990s is in the selector, so you can line up, for example, a 911 Carrera against a Cayman GTS 4.0 or a Boxster Spyder.

Are the MSRPs in the comparison what the car costs today?

No. MSRP is the US base price when that trim launched, excluding destination and options. Used prices depend on mileage, condition and options.

How do I know which options a specific Porsche has?

Trim specs are the starting point; a car's factory options are tied to its VIN. A build sheet decoded from the VIN lists each option code, the original paint and the interior as built.
